He played for the Jamaican national water polo team and alleges to be related to King Solomon through his father.

The lyrics to Sean Paul's song "Breathe" describe a relationship in which the couple constantly fights and breaks up, and the singer tries to convince his partner to let the relationship breathe by taking some time apart. He expresses confusion about their situation and urges his partner to "free up ya vibe and stop actin crazy." He also emphasizes their good times together and asks why she is trying to cause drama. The chorus repeats the message of needing space and time apart to let love breathe and potentially salvage the relationship.
This song is a collaboration between Sean Paul and Blu Cantrell and was released as a single in 2003. The remix features a more prominent role for Cantrell and includes new verses from both singers. The song was a commercial success, peaking at number 12 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and reaching the top 10 in several other countries.
